    Gaming laptop?

    I struggled with parts too. Bottom panel replacement came from Wootware. Ribbon cable came from Aliexpress Couldn't source a new daughterboard for the right side USB, so I essentially have one USB-A port on the left and USB-C on the back, so need a hub (which is fine, but I swear my hub...

    Gaming laptop?

    I would just get a desktop if I wanted something for gaming to be honest. My wootbook is still great spec wise so I am fortunate enough to be in a position to still use it - in between BSODs. My issue is not the heat and loudness, both have been annoying but I live with them. My gripe is you...

    No new disc games on PlayStation from January 2028

    Gaming laptop?

    I wouldn't buy a gaming laptop again. They are not built to last. I had a Gigabyte and its hinges gave in. At the end of its time with me, it's dGPU gave in. I now have a Wootbook which I got in 2023 and the issues I've had with the thing are still a constant pain. * BSODs are a norm with...

But I am now in a position where I have no leeway points wise and the only things left to get points is stuff I do not want to do (take out loans, FNB connect rubbish, insurance with FNB). FNB is slowly pushing out...

    PS5

    KCD2 is tough going but I am getting into it more than KCD1. After the long beginning, I was finally left to do my own thing. I didn't know where my horse went and so I started running everywhere. Now I get popups saying my shoes are in really bad condition. They were good shoes 😞

    Garmin Smartwatch and Wearables thread

    It seems that my escapades of replacing my Venu 2's battery led to its ultimate downfall. Opened it up to take a look the other night and saw some corrosion, which can only mean I didn't seal the watch properly when I did the replacement. Cleaned the corrosion and connected everything and the...
